I did a lot of hand sewing, just little things here and then, and then I was given some fabric and a sewing machine a year ago. I started sewing my first quilt(which I still haven't quilted, am sick of the thing
I now have five sewing machines, two treadles two newer and one 60s workhorse.
I sew quite a bit, and I have never looked back! Now I can't even imagine doing a lot of stuff by hand :mrgreen:
